Chapter 244 Prince Abdullah's concerns
"Are you poaching people for Sister Rui?" Lin Rong tilted her head and said thoughtfully. Apart from Tongyi's TV station, she couldn't think of anywhere else that would need a senior cameraman like Robert.
"Yeah!" Fang Mingyuan nodded slightly. Tongyi TV's previous foundation was too weak, especially the technical staff, who had a lot of money. And in China, poaching people from other TV stations also has to be measured.
Otherwise, colleagues may become enemies. This is extremely detrimental to the development of Tongyi TV. But it is too time-consuming to train ourselves or recruit from new graduates. Water from afar cannot quench the thirst of the near, and it is not temporary.
I can hold it up for a while.
So Fang Mingyuan turned his attention to Hong Kong and overseas. Although the expenditure on salary was higher than that at home, the improvement in effect was also obvious. More importantly, these people were not part of the system.
, everything is done in accordance with the contract, which saves a lot of trouble. Comparing the two, Fang Mingyuan feels that contract employment is more worry-free.
Although Robert lost his index and middle fingers on his left hand, which had a considerable impact on his work, he was, after all, a senior cameraman at CBS and had a considerable reputation and extensive connections in the American industry. Fang Mingyuan did not expect
It seems that he can work normally like a good person, but in Tongyi TV, there are very few elites like him who have worked in world-renowned media. Fang Mingyuan believes that with Robert's work ability and vision, even if he has not
He lost the index and middle fingers of his left hand, and he will probably be one of the best camera operators at Tongyi TV Station for a long time in the future! Moreover, Fang Mingyuan really hopes that he can pass on his camera skills at Tongyi TV Station. Again
In addition, Fang Mingyuan considered that Tongyi TV would have to cooperate and compete with foreign media in the future. By that time, speaking fluent American English and having many friends in the American industry would definitely bring a lot of convenience to Tongyi TV.
.
Doing this will not offend CBS and leave a good impression among CBS employees. Why not do it?
When Fang Mingyuan returned to the Burj Al Arab Hotel, Uda Guangli had already taken Zhao Ya and the others to play in the city. Fang Mingyuan was not worried about their safety. They were accompanied by Prince Maktoum's entourage. In this emirate, there were also
Is there anything safer than this?
Prince Maktoum and Prince Abdullah were sitting in the living room of the suite, puffing away their smoke, enjoying this moment of tranquility. As politicians, things would always be unfinished.
Seeing Fang Mingyuan entering the door, the two of them stood up in unison and gave Fang Mingyuan a warm hug.
"Dear Fang, you bring us pleasant surprises every time!" Prince Abdullah said with a bit of envy. Prince Maktoum has become internationally famous in the past few days. Not only has he received the Saudi royal family
His sincere gratitude also received a special phone call from the President of the United States to thank him. This is undoubtedly a huge political score for Prince Maktoum, who is still just the crown prince.
"Abdullah, it's a bit shameful to say this, right? Fang, didn't I bring you enough surprises?" Prince Maktoum immediately retorted with dissatisfaction. Fang Mingyuan gave Prince Abdullah a lot of money back then.
Extra points in front of the Emir of Kuwait. Not to mention anything else, the manor with the restored fountain has brought so many benefits to Prince Abdullah!
"That can't be compared with your time!" Prince Abdullah shook his head repeatedly. "These two things are not on the same level at all! Besides, if it weren't for Fang, would you have thought of building the Burj Al Arab Hotel?
"The two of them were arguing one by one. Fang Mingyuan couldn't help but laugh. These two were both very old, so they were just like children, arguing endlessly over this kind of thing.
"His Royal Highness Prince Abdullah, why haven't you returned to Kuwait yet?" Fang Mingyuan interrupted the two of them and asked Prince Abdullah.
"Ah, dear Fang, I have something that I want to trouble you with." Prince Abdullah said sternly, "Fang, what I say below can be said to be confidential. I hope you will keep it a secret. Absolutely no
It can be disseminated to the outside world.”
Fang Mingyuan was startled for a moment, and Prince Abdullah said again: "I know, Fang, you never express your opinions on political events, but please help me analyze it!"
Fang Mingyuan turned to look at Chen Zhong standing in the corner of the living room with a wry smile, nodded slightly, and Chen Zhong retreated. Apart from the three of them, the only people left in the living room were Maktoum and Abdul.
Won their henchmen.
It turns out that since the first Gulf War, although the Iraqi army was pushed back into Iraq by the multinational coalition, the rapid fall of Saddam's regime expected by the international community did not occur until today, eight years later. Although Iraq has been
It is suffering from tough sanctions from the United Nations, but there is still no encouraging sign in Iraq. The rule of Saddam's regime still spreads throughout Iraq.
"Although the oil-for-food program has been implemented since 1998, which has alleviated Iraq's domestic difficulties to a great extent, we really don't understand why the Iraqis didn't overthrow Saddam's regime.
It! As long as the Iraqi regime of Saddam Hussein is overthrown, the difficulties they face can be fundamentally alleviated. Perhaps it only takes more than ten years of reconstruction, and a new Iraq will appear in front of the world!" Abu
Prince Doula said with a troubled expression.
"Haha!" Fang Mingyuan smiled and said nothing. He didn't want to examine how much of Prince Abdullah's words were sincere. The Iraqis are not his compatriots. They have fallen into this situation today.
It is said that it was their own fault! If the main force had not invaded Kuwait and still remained entrenched in Kuwait and refused to withdraw its troops after mediation by many parties, it would not have led to the complete outbreak of the first Gulf War.
Before the outbreak of the Gulf War, although the Iran-Iraq War between Iraq and Iran had been going on for many years, Iraqi civilians were still able to live a relatively prosperous life - no money was needed for schooling and medical care in Iraq, and the national income was also
It is relatively high, there are discounts for buying a house, the loan can be said to be only symbolic, and ordinary working-class people can afford a car.
But after the war, economic sanctions cut off its economic lifeline. Without a large amount of oil exports to earn foreign exchange, Iraq would have no money to import food and medicine from abroad. And even if it had money, Western companies would not blatantly do so on a large scale.
Sold to them. As a result, a large number of goods are lacking in the Iraqi market, and the most lacking commercial goods are food and medicine. In Iraq, even ice cream, a common food in modern society, is not available in the market.
Yes, because according to the regulations of the Iraqi government, it is a dairy product and a type of food. Without a license, it is illegal for any commercial store to sell it.
Over the years, severe economic sanctions have led to widespread suffering in Iraq. It is said that from the 1990s to the present, millions of people have died in Iraq due to lack of food and medicine, of which children account for a large proportion. As for the oil-for-food program, it is
It has played a positive role in alleviating the humanitarian crisis in Iraq, but who knows how effective it has been?
"Fang, if Saddam's regime does not step down for a day, our Kuwaiti royal family will always live in fear!" Prince Abdullah made no secret of his hatred for Saddam's regime. In the first Gulf War, the Kuwaiti royal family
Many of them died under bullets from the Iraqi army, the most famous of which was Prince Fahd, the brother of the Emir of Kuwait and the uncle of Prince Abdullah, who was seriously injured and killed while commanding the battle.
Fang Mingyuan nodded. He could understand Prince Abdullah's mood. As a small country with a small population and a small land, Kuwait had no room for strategic shift. But it faced an almost overwhelming advantage.
Even if the Iraqi army and the Kuwaiti army are rearmed, they are far from able to compete with Iraq. Therefore, in the view of the Kuwaiti government, it is best to completely overthrow the Saddam regime and replace it with a government that is in line with Kuwait's security interests.
for the benefit of Kuwaitis.
In Prince Abdullah's telling, Fang Mingyuan gradually figured out the key. It turned out that a while ago, the Americans conducted a series of secret military exercises to deduce that if the US military decided to attack Iraq, they would overthrow Saddam's regime.
The “worst outcome” and “most likely outcome” that emerge later.
The final result of the exercise can be said to be quite pessimistic. According to statistics from US diplomatic officials, intelligence officials and military representatives after the exercise, after the US military captured Iraq and overthrew Saddam Hussein's regime, in order to ensure
In order for Iraq to orderly seal its borders and meet other security requirements, the number of U.S. troops stationed in Iraq cannot be less than 400,000. Even so, considering that Iraq is located in the war-torn Middle East, its neighbor is Iran, which has always been bellicose, and there are domestic
Considering the anti-government forces who intend to split, and other governments in the Middle East, will they think that the new government will become a puppet of the US government? In short, in short, it will be troublesome for the US military to invade Iraq and directly overthrow the Saddam regime.
A lot!
This result gave the Kuwaiti royal family a bad premonition - the Americans may no longer consider investing in troops to overthrow Saddam's regime!
The Kuwaiti royal family panicked because of this! Could it be said that they will always face the military threat from Iraq? Even if Saddam dies, his sons will definitely not change after they come to power! (To be continued. Please search Piao Tian Literature,
